Why should people who spend little to no money benefit just because someone was willing to spend a lot of money on their game account?
There's already a catch up mechanic within the game...its called spending money.

Again I stand my point. The loudest yapping on the forums while the rest of the community gamers are ignored.
Oh and FYI. I was always a top 10 fleeter in my prime. Now I know some of the oldschool game moderators are going to hate this reveal too but oh well. My original name on here was SplinterUK. Also went by Dragon Reborn.
Only interest I have in now is supplying deut trades to people in a self-sabotaged game.
Even then, as a Miner. Eco is still too high. If I as a miner can go from 0 to 1.5m in less than 4 weeks then that really talks for itself.
I don't even see the top players in this uni making that much progress in such a short time because they expect everything spoon fed to them in 10X eco expeditions.
Even Rank 1 account only plays V-mode fleeter. Reason: not enough players to fleet destroy and trade for deut after. Easier to Attack and then V-mode on the barely 300 active players there are in the server, while the other 500 in the top 1000 are secondary accounts being played on a VPN and most in V-mode as well. It's a sad state for an OG server really but oh well."the rest of the community gamers are ignored"
Right. This universe voted for and got eco increases from 2 to 4, then to 5 and 7 and 8 and each of those needed an 80% pass rate to go through. Its not the loudest yappers its actually the majority of players.
The top player in Uni 1 isn't even a fleeter...so....
It doesn't take much to hit 1.5 million points now since classes and lifeforms were introduced, even in low eco universes.
If its not that much of a challenge in low eco then why are you so afraid of the same low eco? You afraid of the old-school challenge? Seems very much so...
Nope, not afraid of it at all. Been there, done that, I've been playing since before officers were a thing.

Meanwhile, .us COMA, not Admin is still in active discussions about the change to 10x eco for at least 4 additional unis now, including already sending out ingame messages about potential changes while .org Admins, not COMA just shuts any x10 discussions down immediately LOLOL. Ive not even bothered to check other coms
Other communities are allowing x10 at will it seems. Was told the other day another community just approved multiple x10 eco votes.

No, just no

1-4 are already cyrstal..6-10 are already metal...

Actually, I like things the way they are now. I’m just a Miner, after all. From my point of view, the changes you suggested would only benefit Fleeters, without offering anything positive for Miners like me. But Universe 1 is a good server for Miners and not so good for Fleeters. A forest with only herbivores will eventually become a desert. Likewise, a server with only Miners will lose its vitality. I also believe that, for the server to stay alive, there should be some changes that benefit Fleeters. However, it would be nice if there were also something for Miners. If not, then so be it. In any case, I wish you good luck.
this is why it was also proposed that we change eco to x10 when available. In the past we've had multiple votes that changed the eco speed here from x2 to x4 and then x5 and eventually x8 without anything ever gained by fleeters. Even if the fleeter related portions were the only ones to go through, it is simply allowing the balance to catch up.
TLDNR: The balance of this universe has been heavily skewed towards miners for a very long time and this package of settings changes partially restore balance. -
i think an increase in the Peaceful fleet speed would be good, even if the change is only to x2 or x3. feel like that change would benefit everyone
I don’t think peaceful fleet speed change will go far. Most people don’t want it because it messes with fleetsave speeds.
I think uni 1 should stay the same. Maybe even go back to 1x fleet speed to
we’re already x1 fleet speed

Hello,
It will not be possible to vote for x10
Regarding the other three settings, you can discuss them, but no polls can be requested before September.
As usual, I am available if you would like informative polls on the forum

honestly I think we’re just taking the pulse here to see if there is support for these settings and then we can proceed with a vote when x10 becomes available
-
I fully agree with this
-
and guess what strait after merge we getting a new uni again and in 2 years that uni will be merged in a old uni again what a scam this game has become.
this is literally how this game has worked forever and ever.

The market palace was removed, and no one spoke up. New ships were locked to classes, and we criticized that, and no one spoke up. Now it's inventory items' turn. I'm not speaking out about that either. I don't care. You can set a timer for whatever you want.
the class ships were always meant to be locked to the classes. If you want reapers switch to general. If you want crawlers switch to collector
-
Yes... Can't help but notice that from the basic combat ships, only the deathstar doesn't have any kind of boost, making what used to be a "one-trick pony" kind of ship even less useful.
we really don’t need them to be faster.

fundamentally i refuse to complain about free shit having a duration/restriction applied
imo reward system should have worked like that from the beginning, enticing the shop purchase and letting player sample paid stuff for free
ya all gotta get of ZeroChill , hes one of few ppl around here who actually cares
free shit is free shit
Someone who actually gets it.

Gameforge doesn't want us to hold on to them. They're trying to generate money. Holding onto items means we aren't spending money.

Given the defender's oGame history, I have a feeling we're going to see him on the wrong side of a lot of HoFs here.
Congrats on the profits.
GLORD and uni 1 is more active than most people realize...As i saw him arrive, i scanned to see his locations. Saw he was right by slevin, gave him a ping and said be careful Slevin can probs hit you within 20 min easy with him being in same system. He replied Im active... xD
Not active enough it seems since he got hit and was still off hours later with still half a billion profit sitting on the moon....whoops

How is it fair to change the rules on a random day? What if someone was in the middle of a trade when the rules took effect?
Then you provide them with the option to perform the trade with the rules applied they started? As it is in many states in the western hemisphere you are judged by the laws (= rules) at the time of the crime commited
to abuse trade rates that are perfectly legal? You're complaining about a problem that doesn't exist except in your own head.
So you want to tell me that people don't pull and that the sudden revival of several accounts is coincidence or what do you mean by "in your own head"?
The rates are legal, the question is why they are legal for some more days if the problem was clearly identified and thus new trade rates introduced
why does it matter if people are taking advantage of some last minute cheap deut trades before the rates are fixed?

why is it so hard to make rules that are valid from the time posted?
we see many people leaving vmode again in the last 5 days to abuse the trade rates
how is that
a) desired
b) fair
c) not prevented?
